Hallo all,

i have some suggestions and questions (comments are welcome):

- not always HOT has same kind of event, but it seems like many event
have epicenteric character. For example earthquakes - we have big todo
filed and different levels of damage. It will make sense if HOT website
will allow to mark epicenter and manage tasks from it. It should be
visible so you can decide by your self what to take, and if you press
"take a task" button, you will get nearest one to epicenter.

- in many cases we need as match information as possible, but since we
have not time, first thing todo are roads, power lines and residential
areas. I think it will help to concentrate and coordinate this tasks
better if hot-site will have multilevel tasks. Currently there is only
"not ready", "ready" and "validated". How about "step one - roads",
"step ... - buildings", "validated"?

- power lines. how match are they important and if really important i
would see some tool which allow creating tagged line and points at one shot.

- are there any way to make some tag global for some task? for example
source=bing. I use it only for HOT, and i use other tag for my town. It
is some kind annoying if need to it all the time. Or may be there are
some other options? Suggestions are welcome.

- Currently it is second my job with lots of slums. May be some of them
not really slums, but they are pain in ass if you need to draw them.
Should we draw them? Or there is some kind of landuse=slum tag?
